ANTI-VIOLENCE INITIATIVE
The Youth Anti-Violence Forum will employ a task force built of representatives of diverse groups who will work toward increasing our youth's awareness on the issue of violence. The Youth Anti-Violence Essay Contest, which began Dec. 6, 2010, asked students ages 11-19 to submit Anti-Violence essays, poetry and artwork representing the topics of bullying, gang violence and teen driver safety. Winners will be selected and awarded at the 6th Annual Youth Golf Clinic. Winners will receive scholarships to go toward school expenses along with monetary awards.

The program will serve 40 of Atlanta's Youth with a motivational speaker, kids' golf clinic with golf pros, nine hole golf experience, and an award reception.

FATHER DAUGHTER DANCE
This is the foundation's annual gala event that is designed to strengthen the bond between a father and his daughter. Held on Father's Day, this elegant affair allows daughters as young as 2 years of age to be treated like ladies by their dads. It's a day neither father or daughter will forget.
